Search for a 5-digit number, return only exact 5 digit match

Post by jryan0858 »

This is all theoretical, but say I have a bunch of graphs that include both a 10 digit circuit ID and a 5 digit account number in their title.
Let's say I also have a website that allows me to click on a 'customer', and it searches cacti by the account number. Which makes sense, because some customers have multiple circuits, and I just want to see all of that customers graphs.

But...

Sometimes the 5 digit account number is also contained within the 10 digit circuit ID of a DIFFERENT customer/account.

How would I modify the inner workings of cacti's search?

Certain the tree/graph/etc permissions are correctly assigned? Yes, the current interface is a wee bit hard to sift through these technical nuances.

While it doesn't help you now, the next major release (no idea when that is) has completely redone User/Graph permissions which would make this a trivial problem to view and solve.

Thanks for that!

Even still, is it possible to edit the inner workings of cacti's search?
